Michael COMPIGNÉ
(-Bef 1695) |
Michael COMPIGNÉ 1Notes: According to family tradition Michael was a clockmaker in Caen, his children escaping religious persecution in France following the Revocation of the Treaty of Nantes in 1685. His wife Catherine was a widow when she registered her temoinage in London in 1694, so it is likely that Michael did not emigrate to England. The first Compigné record in the church registers of the French Community in London was in 1692, at the Church of La Patente Spitalfields. Michael married Catherine. (Catherine died after 1699 3.) |
